The last of my stock 73 2.0L fuel pumps gave up the ghost this week. Leaking out the electrical connector. So i'm looking for an alternate.
I would like to replace it with an off the shelf pump that can be gotten almost anywhere. First I've come up with is the Holley 12-920 or 927. Anyone using these? If so, suggestions on plumbing? |

Either will be fine, unless you want your car to actually run. Pressure's 1/2 to 2/3 of what is necessary just to pressurize the system. The OE pumps put out upwards of 45 psi and operate at about 30. Just go with the later Bosch pump, sold at NAPA stores. Fittment is for 1975-1979 VW beetles and 1976-1991 bus/vanagons.
